Description:
When building MySQL 5.7.11 from source, Clang provides the following warning caused by a transposition typo in the header guard.

In file included from ./mysql-5.7.11/sql/sql_alter_instance.cc:16:
./mysql-5.7.11/sql/sql_alter_instance.h:16:9: warning: 'SQL_ALTER_INSTANCE_INCLUDED' is used as a header guard here, followed by
      #define of a different macro [-Wheader-guard]
#ifndef SQL_ALTER_INSTANCE_INCLUDED
        ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
./mysql-5.7.11/sql/sql_alter_instance.h:17:9: note: 'SQL_ALTER_INSTNACE_INCLUDED' is defined here; did you mean
      'SQL_ALTER_INSTANCE_INCLUDED'?
#define SQL_ALTER_INSTNACE_INCLUDED
        ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        SQL_ALTER_INSTANCE_INCLUDED
1 warning generated.

This has no ill effect at present, but future changes to header ordering or inclusion could cause it to produce build errors (or, though extremely unlikely, silently provide incorrect definitions in the compiled code).

How to repeat:
Build MySQL 5.7.11 from source with the default build settings using Clang 3.6 or later.

Suggested fix:
Fix the transposed characters in the #define statement.
